[0002] In recent years, seawater desalination has been highly concerned in the industrial field. The seawater resources in coastal areas are converted into fresh water that can be used by humans to solve the contradiction between water supply and demand. At present, the methods used for seawater desalination mainly include electrolysis, ion exchange, distillation, reverse osmosis and the like. Among them, reverse osmosis and distillation are the most widely used.

[0003] As a key component of reverse osmosis method, reverse osmosis membrane plays an important role in seawater desalination. With the continuous development of production technology, the production of reverse osmosis membrane and its assembly has been quite mature: the production cost of a single product is reduced, the membrane desalination rate is as high as 99.3%, but the relatively short service life of the membrane still makes the cost of seawater desalination high. The average service life of the membrane is less than 5 years, and the pollution of impurities in seawater to the membrane is the main reason for the short service life of the membrane.

[0004] Backwashing of reverse osmosis membrane can greatly improve the service life of the membrane. However, the existing reverse osmosis water purifier with backwashing function has a complex structure, large occupied area, high cost and low running efficiency.

Figure 3 Each filter core assembly 20 comprises a filter core inner cylinder 21, a reverse osmosis membrane 22 and a grid 23 arranged in sequence from inside to outside. The filter core inner cylinder 21 is provided with a discharge hole and is hollow inside. During installation, the reverse osmosis membrane 22 is attached to the inside of the grid 23, and then the filter core inner cylinder 21 is placed into the grid 23. The filter core inner cylinder 21 plays a flow guiding role while preventing the reverse osmosis membrane 22 and the grid 23 from separating. The grid 23 serves to avoid direct contact between the reverse osmosis membrane 22 and the external seawater environment. Preferably, the reverse osmosis membrane 22 is made of aromatic polyamide membrane with good pressure resistance and chemical stability. The multi-layer structure design of the filter core assembly 20 can make the distribution of seawater more uniform when the seawater passes through the filter core and enters its inside, and the filtering effect is more complete, thereby improving the purity of seawater purification.

[0044] A plurality of piston assemblies 30 are arranged in a ring array in the piston layer 12 and correspond to the plurality of filter core assemblies 20 one by one.

The middle part of the outer surface of the piston outer cylinder 32 is provided with an electromagnetic device. When the piston main body 31 moves to a position where the electromagnetic valve matches the electromagnetic device, the electromagnetic valve is opened, and the fresh water in the piston outer cylinder 32 falls to the fresh water layer 13 through the internal passage 311. When the piston main body 31 moves to other positions, the electromagnetic valve is closed, and the internal passage 311 is blocked.

[0045] As shown in the figure, Figure 4As shown, the electromagnetic valve comprises a lock core 312, a spring 313 arranged perpendicularly to the internal passage 311 of the piston body 31, and an electromagnetic valve cover 314 connected to the outer end of the spring 313, the inner end of the spring 313 being connected to the lock core 312, the lock core 312 being capable of reciprocating in the horizontal direction; the electromagnetic device is an electromagnet 321 installed on the piston outer cylinder 32; when the piston body 31 moves to the position where the lock core 312 matches the electromagnet 321, the lock core 312 moves outward under the action of the electromagnet 321, so that the internal passage 311 of the piston body 31 is in a communication state; when the piston body 31 moves to other positions, the lock core 312 moves inward under the action of the restoring force of the spring 313, so that the internal passage 311 of the piston body 31 is in a blocked state.

[0046] The inclined disc 40 is installed below the piston assembly 30, one side of the inclined disc 40 is higher and the other side is lower, and an annular track is arranged in the circumferential direction, and the lower end of the piston body 31 is respectively arranged in the annular track and is in sliding connection with the annular track. The lower end of the piston body 31 is designed in a spherical shape to adapt to the annular track; the bottom of the annular track is hollowed out to facilitate the falling of fresh water. The driving device 50 is used to drive the inclined disc 40 to rotate around the vertical central shaft, and the inclined disc 40 drives each piston body 31 to complete a reciprocating motion once per revolution. When the inclined disc 40 rotates to the position where the lower end of the piston body 31 is located at the lowest part of the annular track, the piston body 31 moves to the bottom end of the piston outer cylinder 32; when the inclined disc 40 rotates to the position where the lower end of the piston body 31 is located at the highest part of the annular track, the piston body 31 moves to the top end of the piston outer cylinder 32.

[0047] The driving device 50 comprises a gear box 52 arranged below the inclined disc 40, and a motor 51 arranged outside the shell 10, a pair of bevel gears are built in the gear box 52, the output shaft of the motor 51 and the vertical central shaft of the lower part of the inclined disc 40 are connected through the bevel gears, and the inclined disc 40 is driven to rotate around the vertical central shaft through the motor 51.

[0048] As shown in the figure, Figure 5 The working process of each filter core assembly 20 in a cycle is as follows (according to the initial position of the piston body 31 being located at the lowest part of the inclined disc 40):

[0049] a) The piston body 31 is located at the lowest part of the inclined disc 40, the osmotic pressure of the seawater outside is much greater than that of the desalinated seawater inside, at this time the inclined disc 40 rotates, the piston body 31 moves upward to pressurize the fresh water in the filter core assembly 20, until the pressure is increased to be greater than that of the seawater side, the fresh water in the filter core assembly 20 will flow to the seawater side, and the impurities such as insoluble salts attached to the surface of the filter core assembly 20 are washed, and a backwashing is completed;

[0050] b) Piston body 31 runs to the middle height of the inclined disc 40, at this time the electromagnetic valve inside the piston body 31 contacts the electromagnetic device of the piston outer cylinder 32, the electromagnetic valve opens, due to the seawater pressurization and the pressure release of the fresh water compression at the beginning, the fresh water inside the filter element assembly 20 flows out from the channel 311 inside the piston body 31, this process lasts for a short time, and completes the water release once;

[0051] c) During the process of the piston body 31 running to the highest point of the inclined disc 40, the electromagnetic valve inside the piston body 31 is out of contact with the electromagnetic device, and the electromagnetic valve is closed, at this time the piston body 31 compresses the fresh water in the filter element assembly 20, due to the fact that the internal fresh water pressure is small after the water release operation just completed, the pressurized seawater will first enter the filter element assembly 20 until the fresh water pressure is greater than the seawater side due to the compression of the piston body 31, completing the second backwash;

[0052] d) The piston body 31 starts to run from the highest point of the inclined disc 40 to the middle of the inclined disc 40 again, at this time the piston body 31 is lowered, the pressurized seawater accelerates the reverse osmosis to the inside of the filter element assembly 20, and the electromagnetic valve of the piston body 31 is opened again to start the water release when running to the middle of the inclined disc 40, completing the second water release;

[0053] e) The piston body 31 reverts from the middle of the inclined disc 40 to the initial lowest point, the piston body 31 continues to descend, the pressurized seawater accelerates the reverse osmosis to the inside of the filter element assembly 20 and re-fills the filter element assembly 20, thus completing a working cycle.

[0054] Correspondingly, the application also proposes a method for the above-mentioned periodic backwash seawater reverse osmosis desalination device, comprising the following steps:

[0055] The seawater to be purified enters the seawater layer 11 of the shell 10 from the seawater inlet 111, and under the action of the pressure difference between the seawater and the inside of the filter element assembly 20, the seawater will enter the filter element assembly 20 uniformly from the outside to the inside. The seawater needs to be externally pressurized to improve the permeation speed, and waits for several minutes until the filter element assembly 20 is filled with desalinated seawater.

[0056] The motor 51 of the driving device 50 is started to drive the inclined disc 40 to rotate, and at the same time the electromagnetic device located at the piston outer cylinder 32 is started, due to the periodic change of height caused by the inclination angle of the inclined disc 40, each piston body 31 is driven to move up and down reciprocatingly, and the processes of water release and backwash are periodically completed in the reciprocating movement of the piston.

[0057] It should be noted that according to the needs of implementation, each step / component described in the present application can be split into more steps / components, or two or more steps / components or part of the operation of the steps / components can be combined into a new step / component, to achieve the purpose of the present application.

[0058] The size of the serial number of each step in the above embodiment does not mean the order of execution, and the execution order of each process should be determined according to its function and inherent logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of the present application.

[0059] It should be understood that those of ordinary skill in the art can make improvements or changes according to the above description, and all these improvements and changes shall belong to the protection scope of the appended claims of the present application.
